State
of the District Year-End Report

May 19, 2015
Voters in the Mayfield Central
School District Tuesday, May 19, voted in favor of the
2015-16 budget 296 to 101. The $16,985,148 budget
represents a $439,112 decrease in expenditures compared
to the current budget and increases the local tax levy
by $191,456 or 2.7 percent.

Residents also approved district
to use its bus reserve fund to purchase two 65-passengerbuses at a cost of $228,000, and one 41-passenger bus at
a cost of $103,000. The district is eligible for roughly
75 percent reimbursement for these vehicle purchases
through state School Transportation Aid. Between the
reimbursement from state aid, the sale of older buses,
and the projected savings on maintenance and repair,
there is little year-to-year increase in local costs
related to the purchases.

Residents also voted in favor of
re-establishing the Bus Purchase Reserve Fund. This
allowsthe district to re-establish a bus purchase reserve fund
for future acquisition of school buses and vehicles.
Utilizing School Transportation Aid and unappropriated
fund balance and budgetary appropriations, the reserve
will be funded at a maximum amount of $2 million. The
term of the reserve is 10 years.

One candidate, Aaron Flynn, was
also elected to the board of education garnering 231
votes. Board terms are five years.

Exit survey results

May 20, 2015 Mayfield CSD conducted a
Board-approved voluntary voter exit poll survey of
district residents who participated last night at the
annual vote and election. Two hundred and fifteen [215]
voters participated in that voluntary exit poll survey.
Attached is a public report offering highlights and
details of the survey results. At next month’s school
board meeting, there will be appreciation expressed to
members of the high school’s college-level American
Political Systems class, led by faculty member Jennifer
Wasserstrom. Members of that class helped administer
that voluntary voter exit survey and tally the results
of that anonymous survey.

Mrs. Lozier was chosen as one of fourteen educators and students
in New York State to receive the Champions of Character Award. The Champions of Character Award is given
in honor of individuals, schools, and organizations throughout New York State in recognition of leadership
and dedication to the vision and mission of fostering positive character development in our youth and communities.
The honorary Committee Chair Senator Kirsten Gillibrand was the keynote speaker at the event. The planning committee
for this achievement award consists of Congressman Paul Tonko, Assemblyman John McDonald III, County Executive Kathy Jimino, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Dr. Philip Fusco, Dr. Hanns Meissner, CEO, and the ARC Rensselear County. Also receiving this award was Dr. Stephen Birchak who has been a presenter for students and faculty at our school and resides in our community. Several volunteers, businesses, and schools were also chosen to be honored. On April 15, Mrs. Lozier received the Academy for Character Education at the Sage Colleges Champions of Character Award at the Franklin Plaza Ballroom in Troy.

Mrs. Lozier shared that she is tremendously honored and humbled to be receiving this award. She stated that she accepts this award
on behalf of all of the students, parents, teachers, staff, administration, and community members who have worked tirelessly by her
side for the last 25 years. She is extremely proud of our school and all of our accomplishments. She giggles when she tells people,
“I may be beating the drum, but I am not the whole band!” She continues to be driven in her journey to help Mayfield Central School
District reach the goal of receiving the NYS School of Character designation. At this time, our district has reorganized our approach
and will be adopting a PreK through grade 12 framework for character in hopes of developing a school and community environment that
reflects all domains of character at all times.

Final state budget approved by
the State Legislature

April 1, 2015

The Mayfield
Central School District expects an estimated $8,755,453
in state funding as part of the final state budget
approved by the State Legislature.

To
receive the aid, legislators approving the budget are
requiring that the district retool its teacher
evaluation plan – known as the Annual Professional
Performance Review (APPR) – under a new set of
undetermined rules. The plan must be approved by the
State Education Department by November 15.

“Overall,
state aid is estimated to drop $349,733 and that was
forecasted by Mayfield CSD because a roughly 15-year
payment schedule associated with facilities repairs,
renovations and modernization authorized by voters more
than fifteen years ago comes to a close at the end of
this school year. Since Mayfield CSD will no longer be
paying debt on that roughly 15-year old capital project,
the corresponding state aid payments associated with
that debt load come to a close, as well,” said Interim
Superintendent A. Paul Scott.

The
amount includes a $567,900 restoration of the Gap
Elimination Adjustment – or GEA. This represents a
partial restoration of the amount that has been deducted
annually from the district’s promised state aid since
2010. The GEA has been used as a way to help the state
balance its budget. Statewide, nearly $10 billion in
school aid has been removed from districts since the GEA
was introduced. Legislators have agreed to end the GEA
permanently in 2016-17. View the District Bulletin
here (PDF document).

Safety
Drill

Central School District’s Junior-Senior High School
facility, school administrators engaged in a pre-planned

County Sheriff’s Department, according to Mayfield
Central School District Interim Superintendent of
Schools A. Paul Scott. The multi-part exercise reflects
on-going focus on campus safety and security. The
multi-part drill affords administrators and the school
district helpful information regarding staff and student
awareness and response with key safety protocols and
procedures. Mayfield Central School District is
committed to providing a safe and orderly school
environment where students may receive and district
personnel may deliver quality educational services

December 15, 2014

Launched in 2002 by Teaching Tolerance, a project of the Southern
Poverty Law Center, Mix It Up at Lunch is a simple call to
action: take a new seat in the cafeteria. On this one day, students
take a risk in a safe, controlled environment. They may make new
friends and help build an inclusive and welcoming school community.
Students in 4th, 5th and 6th grades at
Mayfield Elementary School mixed it up at lunch on Friday, December 12th.
The event, coordinated by Catholic Charities Prevention Educator, Amy
Walag, was themed, “Friends Can Be Lifesavers.” Students were randomly
assigned to color-coded lunch tables, where they participated in
friendly conversation and fun games. Many students also dressed in
mixed up clothing for the occasion. School principal and celebrity
judge, Nick Criscone, chose the “Most Mixed Up Class” at each grade
level and prizes were awarded.

like to become a regular volunteer at the local food pantry. David,
thank you for your contributions to our society!

The importance of school
attendance

October 22, 2014Every Minute Counts … Every Student
Counts

Daily
attendance is one of the most important factors in
whether or not a student will succeed in school.
Students are faced today with unprecedented changes
within the field of public education so it’s essential
they are present to receive the instruction they need to
meet or exceed those standards. If a student is going to
be absent or tardy, parents are expected to contact the
child’s school directly the morning of the absence.

October 15, 2014 New York State expects each public school
district’s Board of Education to adopt and enforce a code of conduct for
maintenance of order on school property and at school functions. The
code of conduct governs the conduct of students, employees and visitors.
Each Board of Education is to review the code annually and update the
code if and as necessary. Mayfield CSD’s Code of Conduct was adopted by
the Board of Education August 19, 2014. School districts are expected to
make the Code of Conduct a public document. A PDF copy of the Code
of Conduct is available
here.

Information Technology Network
and Student Email Accounts

September
17,
2014 District policy 4526 sets forth specifics

technology network and acceptable use of the Internet.
The school district reserves the right to access, review
and monitor use of the network as well as the data that
is stored or transmitted. Use of the email system for
personal business is not authorized. There was some
limited piloting of district-created individual student
email accounts last school year. Also, the school
district is aware that more and more students arrive at
school already having their own personal or family email
account. The Interim Superintendent of Schools is
gathering facts and background information on this
matter of individual student email accounts. Meanwhile,
any further piloting of district-created individual
student emails is ‘on hold’ at least for the start of
this school year, until a suitable protocol or policy is
put into place by the school board.

charge procedure is slated to launch at the October
regular meeting. The Interim Superintendent will advance
a preliminary draft edition set of revised student meal
charge procedures to administrators, parent-teacher
organization presidents and various others. The intent
is to have a revised, updated set of student meal charge
procedures in place at some point prior to winter 2014.
